If you missed last Sunday you can access the inspiring message from Sean Touhy at http://ccconline.cc/videos.php?q=view&id=257. It was a day you don’t want to miss.
Our theme for the month of May is “Growing Good Fruit.” We begin this Sunday with a look at our global impact. We have several hundred partners with feet on the ground in countries all around the world. We are contributing to good fruit in ways we don’t even realize. I am looking forward to celebrating God’s love for us and considering what I can do to continue to grow good fruit.
Are you looking for an enjoyable event this weekend? Friday and Saturday present opportunities to take in Beauty and the Beast at our Performing Arts Center. The Fine Arts department of our high school will present this musical and they always do an amazing job. You won’t be disappointed.
Romans 10:11-13 As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

Challenging Yet Exciting Days
It would be hard to find someone who has not heard of or seen the movie The Blind Side. With that in mind, this is a great weekend to invite a friend to come with you to Capital. Sean Touhy, the real-life father of The Blind Side story will be speaking in all three morning services. It will be so good to hear the story from the man who lived it.
These are challenging yet exciting days. When we turn to God in tough times we experience His love and grow closer to Him. The closer we grow to Him the more grace we have in us to give to others. Our healing becomes an opportunity to influence others toward their healing. I am grateful you are walking out this journey with me.
2 Corinthians 12:9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.
Can’t wait to see you!

Our theme for this month is all about reaching people who don’t have faith in Jesus. We started with a tremendous Easter weekend of outreach and we will end the month with Sean Touhy, the real-life father who took a homeless teenager into his home and the story was made into the movie Blind Side. This is a great opportunity to invite a friend to hear his story.
If you are involved in coaching any youth sports, Character Combine is another place where you can hear Sean Touhy. The Combine takes place on Saturday, April 24, and you can register or find more information at www.charactercombine.com.
This Sunday we will be focusing on Acts 17 and Paul’s interaction with a crowd of unbelieving philosophers in Athens. There are significant methods we can learn from Paul’s approach. I am looking forward to celebrating our love for Jesus with you and continuing our spiritual journey together.
1 Peter 3:15 But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.

Outreach Opportunity
Labels: Blind Side, Capital Christian Center, Easter, God, outreach, Rick Cole, Sacramento church, Sean Tuohy
Easter weekend was an incredible experience! The Savior, Healing Hands musical was presented with excellence by our Music and Creative Arts Ministry. A big thanks to Pastor Rob for his vision and leadership. We had 5,000 people attend one of the three presentations. There were about 4,000 at the Easter egg hunt on Saturday which was well organized by Pastor Ed and his team. Then, on Easter Sunday we had 5,262 worship with us. A big thank you to all our volunteers who made this a spectacular weekend!
We continue the theme for April of outreach with a focus on our task. It is more like an opportunity than a task. The word task sounds more like a duty or obligation. I like to think of what we can do to reach those without faith as more of an opportunity. It is a joy. The foundation for Sunday’s message will be Micah 6:8. “He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.”
I’m looking forward to celebrating with you and strategizing how we can invite our friends to join us on Sunday, April 25, to hear the real life father of the Blind Side story. Sean Touhy will be our guest and he will provide a great conclusion to our focus for the month.
